My first guess it that your router is overheating.  Next time you have a

temperature on the router before you do any downloading, so you have
something to compare when you have a problem.

I have a netgear router, on ASDL broadband and had exactly this problem. I had it positioned flat on a bookshelf, under my DECT phone base station. When uploading large numbers of files via ftp, or downloading large files (e.g. iso files) it would drop connections to my other computers.

Standing it vertically cured this problem, as it was able to keep cooler. It does say in the manual not to put things on top of the router, but who reads the manual (until something doesn't work)
